Card for the Critter Challenge #42

Good evening. Here is my entry for the Critter Sketch challenge #42.

It is based on a 7.52" square navy blue card. The first layer was white card which was sprayed using two colours of Glimmer Mist using pieces of fir tree as masks. This was trimmed to size and mounted onto the base card.

The vertical and horizontal strips were made from silver mirror card which were cut out with Borderabilities and mounted on strips of white card which had their edges tinted with blue distress ink.

The main image was stamped with black Stazon ink and coloured in with Twinkling H2Os. It was cut out using a scalloped circular Nestability and the edges tinted with Distress inks applied with a blending tool.

The sentiment was stamped (Clarity stamp) and embossed with platinum WOW powder, cut out with a circular Nestability and mounted onto a scalloped circular silver mirror card layer.

The large circle is a paper doilley which had its edges tinted with Distress ink.

All these elements were layered onto the base card and three silver mirror card snowflakes were added in the the top right hand corner.

I hope that this meets the challenge sketch and that you like the result.

What a great card! I just love it! Thanks for joining us this week at Critter Sketch Challenge Blog for our sketch Challenge! Good Luck! We Hope to see you again for our next challenge! Thanks Again, Tammy

About Me

I work full time so crafting is only a hobby at the moment but I would very much like to turn it into a career. It is just a case of waiting for the right time.
I love rubber stamping, creating my own backgrounds using various techniques and many other forms of papercraft. Although I have done traditional scrapbooking for many years, I have also just discovered digital scrapbooking. If you would like to see some of my pages find DaisyTrail.com on the web and search for Shirl Freeman. Encasutic art is another favourite of mine. You can create some stunning pictures without being able to paint or draw, which I cannot do to save my life. My encaustic work ranges from small toppers for cards to A3 in size.
In "The Other Blog" I am going to keep away from papercrafting and use this one to present my other craft work such as altered art, paintings, stictching etc.
